Mr. Dudley Buck is writing tho mu sic to the libretto for a comic opera by Mr. W. A Croffut. The feature of the February number of Maanillan's Magazine is King Ccty wayo'g story of the Zulu nation and the Zulu war. Mr. Bret Haric, it is reported, is about to resign his Consulate and return to America. The German climate has not agreed with him, and he has been far from well. Mrs. Olipbant, who has serials now running in both Frazcr's and Macmil- a' magazines, is probably the most firolific of living writers. Witliin the ast three years she has published five or six works several of them being three-volume novels in addition to editing the "Foreign Classics for Knglish Readers." She is now writing a novel with Scotch scenes and characters. Mr. Wm. Black, the popular novel ist, writes with great facility and rapid ity, though he spends but "littc time in consecutive composition. He often writes in a day the result of the obser vations of a week passed in seeming idle ness, lie is said to have accomplished an enormous amount of journalistic work at the time he was writing his earlier hovels. Miss Mary Sprajjuc, the author of the bright novel An Earnest Trifier, is I an Ukio girl 01 twenty-two or twunty thrcc, whoso experience in travel has scarcely extended furihar than from her home to Boston, where she was a guest at the Holmes breakfast. On her re turn she beamed for a few days on New York, and enjoyed greatly its society, amusements, a few agreeable private entertainments, etc., etc. She is rather slight in figure, has a pleasant face, is perfectly simple, graceful, bright, and witty, and docs not in the least affect hose of azure tint. Gilbert, the playwright, Is as practi cal in the management of stage affairs, as he is fanciful in the construction of dramas. Drilling a Philadelphia com pany for the production of his "Pi rates," he insists upon every actor doing the business of his part just as he is in structed, and demands as much atten tion to detail from a chorus singer as from a vocalist. He is lithe, restless, witty, persistent but polite. No drill master is more exacting. No French dancing-master more affable. And ho Sets alltho work accomplished that ho esircs. Science ami Industry. Ice-cutting on the Kennebec in Maine employs 25,000 laborers, who liavo just had their pay raised from $1.25 to $1.50 per day. The- peanut crop of Virginia, Ten nessee and North Carolina is estimated at about 1,835,000 bushels an increase of about 500,000 bushels over last year. Palmetto paper manufacture is so successful in Florida that twenty mills are to be established in various parts of the State, where the material h plenty and transportation easy. Manufacturing clothing in Chicago gives employment to 30,000 people, and the value of the goods made i? $15,000, 000. This industry has doubled in four years. The Swiss exports to the United States in 1879 show an increase of 15, 000,000 francs on those of 1878, the chief items of increase bcimr cotton goods, watches, and embroidery. Leipsic, Germany, has put on the market colored, inks, which iuay bo used for writing labels on glaj, Iron, mar ble, mother of pearl, ahd metal. The writing is dono with a goose-quill, and when dry, adheres so firmly that it can not bo removed by any liquid. Four different colors arc made, black, white, red, and blue. The oldest turpcntineields north of Newborn, N. C, are well nigh abandoned, the industry having been largely diverted to the more productive pine forests of South Georgia. But there arc, according to the Raleigh Ob server, immense tracts of virgin, pine forests in the southern oelt of North Carolina, capable of supplying Wilmington with naval stores for a cen tury to come. Herr Hambruch has patented in Germany a revolver lead pencil, con taining three, four or more leads in a separate partitioned tube, placed eccentrically to the outer case, and capable of being turned round in differ ent positions, so as to bring different leads successively opposite to the mouth of the pencil. A plate, with aperture, in the outer case allows passage of only one lead at a time. In a work on the principles of light and color, the author, Dr. Babbitt, con tends that if a yellow or amber colored bottle of water be exposed to the sun light a while, the water within will be come medicated so that it will act as a laxative and animating principle gen erally, while the water exposed m a blue bottle will act as a nervine, astringent, and narcotic. The experiment can easi ly be tried. School and Church. The Baptist theological seminaries in the United States have 450 young men studying for the ministry. From April 1, 1879, to January 1, 1880, the receipts from donations and legacies of the American Baptist Mis sionary Union amounted to $59,516.66. The McKendree Methodist congre gation at Nashville, Tenn., since the burning ot their new church edifice has used the Jewish Temple, kindly offered by the Israelites of Nashville. The teachers in the primary depart ments of the nine Leadville schools re ceive $60 per month, and those in the intermediate departments get $70. The schools are excellent in work and spirit. It is stated that since 1870 Missis sippi has spent upon Alcorn University and the two colored normal schools the sum of $290,700. This is exclusive of the expenditures for the colored public schools. A committee of Wisconsin teachers recommend that no State certificate be granted to any person except updn ex amination, and then not until after he has successfully taught for at least five years. The Italian teachers propose to or ganize a mutual benefit association, as there is " no preparation by the State or otherwise for the support of super- annuated teachers, or those who have ' been broken down by earnest and faith ful work in the school-room." Superintendent Stone, of Spring field, has obtained good results from written tests demanded on the spur of the moment from public school pupils. Itisaa excellent way of judging of the penmanship and of the intellectual read iness and accuracyof the pupil. Foreign Votes. Mr. Eugene Schuyler, the American Consul in Rome, is living in the Altemps Palace, where he is about to entertain M. andMme. Waddington. It will be remembered that Mr. Schuyler married Mme. Waddington's sister Queen Victoria is the owner of a silver-gilt casket in which are lockets containing locks of hair of thirteen offi cers .who fell atlsandula. Each locket is engraved with an "InMemoriam" and the name of the officer, together was The inspectors of factories in Prus sia are working hard to put down infant labor. At Berlin thirty-three factories have ceased employing children, and in the others there are only nine under fourteen years of age. The same has been the casein nearly all the provinces notably in the district of Frankfort-on-the-Oder. Mr. W. Morris, o! Gourock, Groat Britain, has, it is said, invented a meth od of photographing Under water. The camera is said to be lowered beneath the wave, and the "cap" removed, when the adjustment has been made to suit tho operator. A Scotch journal Mates some fairly good views have been taken by this process. A railroad is to be constructed be tween Otaru and Sapporo, in Japan, under the supervision of Mr. Crawford, an American engineer. The Tokio Times ays: " The enterprise will be an American one in every essential par ticular, and tho opportunity will be af forded of comparing or contrasting the methods employed in the United States and those of English builders." The Prince of Wales is retrenching his exnenditure. which has been cut down one half in each of his residences. The time, however has come when the assistance of the Prince has become accessary, not in the serious adminis tration of the Government, but in the entertainment of those who govern. The Queen has opposed this assumption for the last three years, but at length consents lo deposit in hi? hands, if not the globe and sceptre, at all events the vLsitinir list and bird Chamberlain's book. The responsibility is not of mere evening receptions or garden parties, but involves the more serious business of banquetings and royal feasts, and the Prince, who ha been compelled to re duce his expenditures through heavy debts contracted in this very task, re quires a supplement to his income. Al though it is known that, in addition to her immence income she has laid aside 5,000,000, and could easily afford this, her faithful Commons nre to be asked to vote for it. Odds and Kmls.

Indianapolis Journal. m m A Bachelor's League. Many highly respectable men in London about thirty years ago, as the Punch files tell us, had become thor oughly impressed with the Idea that something ought to be done to relieve themselves from certain social duties which had been gradually growing moro and more onerous. After some can vassing among tho interested persons it was finally decided to form a League of Bachelors, and as the members of that league were endeavoring to escape from responsibilities which aro noto riously shirked by the young men of to-day, we shall perhaps interest our feminine readers by transcribing a few of the rules which were laid down for a London society almost a gener ation ago, and which aro likely to be revived before long on this side of the water : 1. Every bachelor joining the League" is tocancel all previous engagements. 2." Every bachelor having subscribed for five years to the League, and who, by misfortune, shall have incurred a matrimonial engagement, shall be defended against any action for breach of promise, and thus saved from the shame and misery of going through the Court of Hymen, which is too fre quently another name for the Insolvent Court. 3. Connected with the League it is intended to establish a Bachelor's In surance Office, to insure single men against marriage and flirtation, on the same principles as are usually applied to death and fire. Any member having visited willfully a house with more than two marriageable daughters, will, in the event of the calamity of marriage befalling him, bo recorded in the same light asfclo de sc, and his policy will bo vitiated on account of the very bad policy that will have guided him. Any bachelor falling into matrimony by his own hand, as in the case.of a written promise to wed, will be deprived of all the benefits of his insurance, and every applicant proposing to be insured must answer the following, questions, among others that will be proposed to him: What is your age next birthday? At what age had your father the misfortune to marry your mother? Have you been afflicted with the German or other mania? Are you subjected to senti mental fits ? Have you been addicted to the writing of sonnets? Or have you ever suffered from the cacoethes scriben di in' any shape, or at any time whatev er? Have you at any time in your life been a victim to the flute, or any other deadly-lively instrument? Have any of your near relations fallen in love at any time, andif so, have they recovered, or have their cases ended fatally ? If these questions are all answered in a satisfactory manner, any- member of the Bachelors' League may insure any amount under $5,000, to be paid within three months of the melancholy termi nation of his single career, on proof of wedlock having actually overtaken him. The insurance against flirtation or fire can be effected where the applicant is more than ordinarily inflammable, and watering-places in the season, balls and rticnic parties must be considered as doubly or trebly hazardous, and charged accordingly. Boston Times. TWO SIDES TO A FBOLIC. A Story lor the Xomng Folk. Bert was on one side of the fence and tho boys on the other. His hand was on the gate but he bad not quite made up his mind to open it. "Oh, come on," Bald Val Morton. What is the use of moping In the house such a splendid night as this ? Come on and have some fun." ' I ought to study my Latin," said Bert, reluctantly, as he remembered the long, dry lesson. "Bother the Latin; it's no me, any way. I'd like to see any body getting those irregular verbs out of me," said Will Moore. Bert laughed a little at the idea of getting any thing out of Will's brain, that never had much but mischief in it, and then he slowly oened the gate, drew a Jong breath and went out. It was a glorious night, with just enough frost in the air to make it cool and crisp, while the white moonlight almost re vealed the colors of the maples that had been flaming all day iu the hot sun shine. " Where are you going?" asked Bert. "Oh, just around town," said Val carelessly, and at that moment they came opposite to Dr. Parker's gate, which stood a little way open. In an instant Val lifted it off the hinges and laid it in the gutter. " Teach him lo keep his gate fduit,'' laughed Will," ahd Bert laughed, too, though he felt ashamed of himself, for every body liked Dr. Parker. A few blocks further on were some wooden steps at the edge of the side walk. Will gave Val a nudge, and with one stout tug the steps were upset. "That's too tiuiqn " said Bert. " Suppose some one should step off there? " "Pooh!'!, said Val, "it is light as uay, ami nooouv ever uocs iro down there except old Bijah, when he is in a hurry for his grog. Serve him right if he pitched over." Bert knew ho was in bad company, but he was beginning to enjoy the ex citement of the adventure, and when Will proposed that they should carry off the sign from a little shop, and fasten it to the horns of Mrs. McPher-1 son's cow, he was ready to lend a hand himself. Old Whitey, who was peace fully chewing her cud, was easily coaxed into an alley with a handful of turnips pulled from her owner's garden; and before she realized that any niNchicf was intended, she found herself blun dering about wilh aboard fastened over her face. The sign read, "Dressmak ing and" Fine Suwing; all kinds of Hair Woik. Ladies' Hair Dressed in the latest styles." The boys laughed so much over this that they were in danger of being found out. But at last Bert said he must go home and that ended the frolic for the night. In his own room he tried for a little while to fix his mind upon his lesson. but toon found himself laughing at the thought of the figure the cow" would cut, and wondering where they would find her in the morning; so he tossed the book aside and went to bed. This was one side. The other side began tho next morn ing, when, with Bert's first waking thoughts, came a consciousness of the Unprepared lesson, and a dismal fore boding of failure, that brought him to the breakfast-table in any thing but an amiable mood. His father was not there, and Aunt Margaret explained that lie hail been called awav to see a patient. " It's that smart little Johnny Col lins; he's twisted his ankle dreadfully; worse to managce than a broken bono, your father says, and may lay him up half the winter." "How did it happen P" asked Bert, absently. " That's the worst of it," said Aunt Margaret " some mischievous boys, that ought to be sent to the Keform School, Upset the steps in front of tho house." Bert was wide enough awake now, and staring at Aunt Margaret with fright ened eyes as she went on. " Bijah wentoff on one of his drinking sprees, and his wife was so anxious for fear he'd lain down somewhere on the track that she sent Johnny out to look him up. He ran out of the gate, boy fashion, and made a rush for the steps, never noticing that they were gone till he pitched down the bank with liis foot twisted under him. He must have fainted and lain there some time before ho managed to crawl back, and they didn't send for your father till morning. It docs seem too hard for that poor wom an. Johnny was her only dependence, and such a nice boy." Poor Bert was fairly sick with horror at the unlooked-for result of the mischief, for though he had made a feeble protest, he had really sanctioned it by his presence, and he knew that his father would say he was as much responsible as any one. His father! must he know it? Could he ever hold up his head asrain if such a disgrace came up on him? " I'll never tell him," thought Bert; " it would not do the least good now, and it would nearly kill him. I've done with those boys, though, and with such frolics as they are up to." But It chanced that Bert was not to have his own way about this matter. That evening when he came home smarting under the mortification of fail ure in his lessons, and a sense of re morse and shame at his own folly, his father called him into his study. For the first time in his life Bert really dreaded an interview with his father,, and when he saw upon a chair the hair dresser's sign which he had helped to fasten upon Mrs. McPherson's cow, he was ready to sink with shame. His father talked to him quietly, telling him that for some time the neighborhood had been annoyed by the mischievous and malicious tricks of a set of boys, until some of the residents had deter mined that they would discover them and make a public example of them. " If it could have been done sooner it would have saved a great deal of suffer ing to an innocent boy, but perhaps some serious warning was needed for those who do not hesitate to sacrifice their best friends to what they call fun. This morning Dr. Parker called me into his garden and, after showing me the mischief done to his choice vines and plants by some creature that had tram pled over them, he told me that he found Mrs. McPherson's cow in the grounds with that sign tied to her horns. The gate had been taken from the hinges, and the animal had apparently been driven about to do as much dam age as possible. It seemed almost in credible that any one would have the boldness to avow such a piece of vil lainy." Bert sat with his eyes fixed upon the sign, unable to move or speak, but at that instant he saw, written in pencil at the top of the board : " Compliments of Bert Andrews.11 " How mean," he exclaimed, angrily: "That is tome of Will Moore's work." "My boy," exclaimed his father, lookiag as if an immense burden had been lilted from him. "I shall be tne happiest man in town to know that you had no .hand in this rascally business." Then Bert's heart fell again. He thought he had only shared in the fun, but he suddenly realized that his com panions had so contrived that he should also bear the disgrace and the blame for the unlooked-for results. After all, it was a relief to both fa ther and' son when the whole story was told. Bert was relieved at having made a full confession and feeling himself re stored to his father's confidence, while his father was glad of the assurance that bU bov had not been guilty of malicious m&cbfef. " Nothing more fortunate could have happened to vou than this very first ad venture ehoufd bring you into trouble, for remember, my boy, that the act themselves would "have been just a dis graceful if things had not resulted as they did. The law does not trouble it eu about intention, but holds us re sponsible for the rnUchicf which results, or which might be expected to result, from our acts." " Father," said Bert, presently. I hate to have the boys think I to'ld of them." "Thcv seem to have had no scruple about telling of ou," said his father. " I shall certainly go to their fathers and do what I can to save them from certain ruin. As for you, Bert, I advise voti to iro and have a talk with Dr. Par- ker." Bert never reported his conversation with the good old minister, but they shook hands vcrv cordially as thev Iparted, and the Doctor was o, I to sjteak of Bert as a " fine i (ten heard mauly fel low." Bert likes fun as well as ever, but he has a habit of looking very cautiously at a frolic, to be Mire there" an; not two sides to it, before he ventures in an excellent habit to form. Emily Hun tington Miller, in Church and Hoihc. ut Lost la the Shew. Anions the dangers of the winter in the Pass of St. (Jot hard is the fearful snow-htorm called the " guxetcn" by the Germans, and the tounuente or " tor menta" by the Swiss. The mountain snow differs in form, as well as in thick ness and specific gravity, from the .star shaped snow-llakes on the lower heights and in the valleys. It is quite floury, dry and sandy, and therefore very light. When viewed through a microscope it assumes at times the form of little pris- tiiatic needles, at other times that of in numerable small six-Mdeit pyramids, from which, as from the morning star, little points jut out on all sides, and which, driven by the wind, cut through the air with great speed. With this line ice dust of the mountain snow, the wind drives its wild game through tho clefts of the high Alps and over the passes, partielaily that of St. Gothard. Sud denly it tears up a few hundred thou sand cubic feet of this snow, and whirls it high into the air, leaving it to the mercy of the upper current, to fall to the ground :lgam In tho form of the thickest. snow-storm, or to be dispersed at will like glittering ice-crystals. At times tho wind sweeps up large tracts of the dry ice-dust, and pours them down upon a deep-lying valley amid the mountains, or on to "the summit of the passes, obliterating in a few seconds the laboriously excavated mountain road at which a whole company of nitners have toiled for days. AH these appearances resemble the avalanches of other Alps, but can not be regarded in the same light as the true snowstorm, the tor menta or guxeten. This Is incompara bly mol'e severe, and hundreds on hun dreds of lives have fallen sacrifices to its fury. These have mostly been trav eling strangers, who either did not dis tinguish the signs of the coining storm, or, in proud reliance on their own pow er, refused to listen to well-meant warn ings, and continued their route. Almost every year adds a large number of vic tims to the list of those who have fallen a prey to the snow-storms. History and the oral tradition of the mountains record many incidents of ac cidents which have been occasioned by the fall of avalanches. During the Belliuzona war, in 1478, as the confed erates, with a force of ten thousand men, were crossing the St. Gothard, the IHen of Zurich were preceding the army as vanguard. They had just refreshed themselves with some wine, and were marching up the wild gorge, shouting and singing, in spite of the warnings of their guides. Then, in the height aboe, an avalanche was suddenly loosened, which rushed down upon tho wad, and in its impetuous torrent buried sixty warriors far below in the lteuss, in full sight of those following. On the 12th of March, 1848, in the so-called Planggcn, above the tent of shelter at the Matelli, thirteen men who were conveying tho post were thrown by a violent avalanche into the bed of the lleuss, with their horses and sledges. Three men, fathers of families, and nine horses were killed; the others were saved by hastily-summoned help. But one of their deliverers, .Joseph Mueller, of Hospcnthal, met a hero's death while engaged in the rescue. He had hastened to help his neighbors, but in the district called the "Harness" he aud two others were overwhelmed by a second violent avalanche and lost their lives. In the same year the post going up the mountains from Airola was overtaken by an avalanche near the house of shel ter at Ponte Tremola. A traveler from Bergamo was killed; the rest escaped. History tells of a most striking rescue from an avalanche on the St. Gothard. In the year 1728 Landamraan Kasper, of Brandenburg, the newly-chosen Gov ernor of Bellenz, was riding over the St. Gothard from Zug, accompanied by his servant and a faithful dog. At the top of the pass the party was overtaken bv an avalanche which descended from the Lucendro. The dog alone shook himself free. His first care was to ex tricate his master. But when he saw that he could not succeed in doing this, he hastened back to tho hospice, and there, by pitiful howling and whining, announced that an accident had hap pened. The landlord and his servants set out immediately with shovels and pickaxes, and followed the dog, which ran quickly before them. They soon reached the place where the avalanche had fallen. Here the faithful dog stop ped suddenly, plunged his face into the snow, and began to scratch it up, bark ing and whining. The men set to work at once, and after a long and difficult labor succeeded in rescuing the Landam man, and soon "afterward his servant. They were both alive, after spending thirty-six fearful hours beneath the snow, oppressed by the most painful thoughts. They had heard the howling and barking of the dog quite plainly; and had noticed his sudden departure, and the arrival of their deliverers; they had heard them talking and working, without being able lo move or utter a sound. TheLandamman's will ordained that an image of the faithful dog should be sculptured at his feet on his tomb. This monument was seen till lately in St. Oswald's Church, at Zug.

Formerly the Kmperor, as might bo expected from one of hi.s lethargic temperament, was averse to moving about; latterly he has been troubled by a perpetual restlessness. He lives very plainly and his table is sparsely served. A beefsteak for breakfast, a roat gelinuttc and salad for his dinner form the staple of his fai. His appetite is not robust, and he sleeps badly. There was a caricature published in St. l'etcrsburgshortly after his accession which represented him as a droschky driver in the state that droschky drivers usually are after dinner. His hat was pulled" over his eyes and his horses were galloping wildly on the road to " Re form." Behind him was the Grand Duke Cdnstaulitte, saying, "Gently, brother. 1 am the fare.' Still the Emperor laughed; he laughed, too, when a piecuwas played in the Court theater exposing the corruption of his officials, and a very fine piece it was. Then somebody shot at him and shat tered his nerves forever. He fell into a sort of panic, trying hastily to undo all he had done. He had new gyves put on writers ; he ordered some awful cruelties in Poland. He tried to win back his sulky nobles. It was all in vain, and now he is thoroughly flus tered and frightened right out of his senses. His only chance of peace and happiness wouhf be abdicating and a year's yachting without newspapers. At present he is worried into a fever every morning by a summary of all the un pleasant things which have been printed about him for the last twenty-four hours throughout Europe. It is prepared by a special precis writer appointed for the purpose, and his Majesty takes care that it shall spare him no pang of this self inflicted torture, for he will not trust a professional diplomatist to do it lest he should gloss over the troth and endeavor to make things pleasant for promotion's sake. A Baron Herder, a connection of Steiglitz, the banker, not long ago per formed this delicate service, and perhaps docs so still. The King of Yvctot was a happy monarch; the Emperor of Rus sia is not. Surely, times must be strangely altered. Work, (he Consoler. Before and after Adam Bcdc, many a perplexed spirit has found that the bet of work is that it " gives one a grip hold of things." In statelier phrase Dr. Johnson uttered the same truth: "Whatever withdraws us from the power of the sensts, whatever makes the past, the distant, or the future pre dominate over the present, advances us in the dignity of human beings." There is no trial of our mortal lot which ear nest, absorbing and constant toil will not lighten as no other help can do. Even manual labor, that brings only weariness to the body and kindly sleep in its train, is a beneficent distraction. Bodily activity deadens emotion. And as swift walking relieves intense irrita tion, so the necessity of occupation is a safe-conduct to grief and pain. But it is work that fills and rouses the mind which is the true consoler. Histo ry is full of stories of noble men and women buffeted with hard blows of fate who have armed themselves with laborious patience, and made their hearts greater than their fortunes. Poverty is bitter, and reminds her vic tims, in season and out of season, of her rude nature. Yet Shakespeare wa3 right wnen he said, "It is the mind that makes the body rich." When the great Erasmus was a poor student in Paris, almost in rags, he wrote to a friend : " As soon as I get money I will buy. first, Greek books, and then clothes." In his work he could forget all bodily distresses. Kepler was always poor and hampered by his penu ry, but he declared at the end of his life that he would rather have had his inheritance of poverty, with his work and its successes, than to have been the heir of the Duchy of Saxony. Ifrirflg and imprisonment are among the darkest tragedies of existence. But Ovid, banished from the luxurious and learned capital to the barbarians of Tooais, in the inhospitable waste along the Eaxine, stripped of property, wife, and children, saved himself from despair by labor, and, surrounded by hopeless savagery, produced some of the finest of his works. Boethius, the last and noblest of the ancients, before the darkness of the Middle Ages fell on Europe, lving under unjust sentence of death in the tower of Pavia, forbidden books, intercourse with fellow-scholars, preserved his sanity and fortitude to lace a cruel death by writing "The Consolation of Philosophy."
